Definitions

  • the present invention relates generally to document services accessible from a mobile device, and more specifically to a method and apparatus for initiating and controlling a document service request from a mobile device.
  • the original token-based environment distributes references to documents between mobile computing devices by transmission of the document references, rather than the documents themselves. More specifically, a mobile computing device described in the original token-based environment is adapted to store a collection of document identifiers (e.g., a URL "Uniform Resource Locator"). Each document identifier in the collection identifies a particular document, or service. Each mobile computing device thus holds document references, rather than the documents themselves, thereby eliminating the concern of storage capacity of the mobile computing device. Large documents containing any form of data can therefore apparently be carried using a mobile device and used to construct a transaction request that can itself be submitted to a remote service such as a print service.
  • a remote service such as a print service
  • Mobile computing devices operating in the original token-based environment are thus programmed to receive, transmit, and store document identifiers.
  • Each document identifier stored on a mobile computing device is associated with an electronic document stored in an electronic repository.
  • a document can be sent to a token-enabled (e.g., an IR transceiver equipped) network printer by "beaming" a document token, which references the document, from a mobile computing device to the network printer.
  • the token-enabled network printer retrieves the complete document referenced by the document token, and immediately prints a copy of the document. So, to a user of the mobile computing device, documents are apparently passed between users, and output from, or input to token-enabled devices coupled to networks as expansive as the Internet.
  • the non-token enabled device mounted with a token-enabler unit is made token-enabled as long as it has an existing network connection with a token-enabled server, as described in U.S. Patent No. 6,515,988 .
  • Solutions exist, such as a virtual private network (VPN), that permit a registered user of a private network to securely access the content of documents or services located inside the firewall of the private network from or through public networks.
  • a registered user of a private network can use a VPN, for example, to access document or service located on the private network and provide them to a non-registered user of the private network.
  • Other solutions exist as described in U.S. Patent No. 6,397,261 , which disclose a system that provides secure transfer of a document referenced by a document token that is transferred from an issuer to a holder. Another solution is described in U.S. Patent Applications No.
  • a method, apparatus and article of manufacture therefor for submitting a document service request from a mobile device to a document processing device coupled to a first network and being adapted to communicate with one or more servers coupled to a second network.
  • a first connection and a second connection are established with the document processing device.
  • a document service request is specified that includes a document identifier identifying a document in a first document format and its location on the second network.
  • the document service request is submitted together with a device identifier to an output server coupled to the second network from the mobile device over the first connection with the document processing device.
  • the document is received in a second format from the output server at the mobile device over the first connection with the document processing device.
  • the second format of the document is an input format of the document processing device.
  • the document received from the output server in the second format is resent to the document processing device from the mobile device over the second connection with the document processing device for performing a specified document service thereon.
  • the output server retrieves the document in the first format from the file server using the document identifier and converts the document into the second format using the device identifier.
  • the first document processing device provides the mobile device with directions to the second document processing device to which it redirected the ones of the user submitted document service requests selected for redirection.
  • FIG. 1 illustrates an operating environment 100 for carrying out the present invention.
  • the operating environment 100 is one in which a mobile user 102 is a fully authenticated registered user (e.g., having a defined set of access rights) of local area network 104, otherwise referred to herein as the mobile user's native network 104.
  • the mobile user 102 has, for example, access rights to file server 106 that is adapted to store in the user's directories documents such as document 108.
  • the document services available at the document processing device 114 include any number of hardcopy and/or electronic services that are not device specific such as a translation service, a summarization service, a format conversion service (e.g., an optical character recognition (OCR) service), a scan-to-file service (i.e., storing, e.g., using Xerox® FtowPortTM), a recommender service, a messaging service (e.g., emailing, SMS, and faxing), a document location service, and an enrichment service that all can be applied on their own or in addition to applying a device specific service (e.g., printing) using, for example, a document service request workflow described below in section B.3 with reference to Figures 10-16 .
  • a device specific service e.g., printing
  • the mobile computing device 120 has embedded therein one or more transceivers for establishing one or more wireless (or hardwired) connections (or sessions) that may take place over one or more separate communication channels.
  • a communication channel is defined using one or more protocols, such as for example, HCRP (Hardcopy Cable Replacement Profile), Bluetooth SPP (Serial Port Profile), Bluetooth LAP (LAN Access Profile), or Bluetooth BPP (Basic Printing Profile).
  • the individual communication channels may be established between the mobile device 102 and a single computational device (e.g., document processing device 114) or a plurality of computational devices (e.g., document processing device 114 and network access point 112).
